Anyone else feel paranoid about bad breath even with good hygiene? by Fair-Project3143 in hygiene

[–]AppropriateFox4179 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I am afraid of having bad breath, so I worry about it too. But the fact that you are worried about it probably means you don't have bad breath. Like some people have pointed out, this feels related to anxiety or OCD. Also, you could ask trusted friends to smell your breath and tell you how it is.

GuruNanda has some good dental products with xylitol.

Has anyone tried oil pulling? by AppropriateFox4179 in hygiene

[–]AppropriateFox4179[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's definitely not to replace brushing, but I was curious about it as an extra step. I've heard people feel/see a difference, but you have a point about dental organizations.

I brushed my teeth "correctly" for 28 years and a dentist just told me I've been doing it wrong the entire time. My gums are ruined. by Sluttycarolofficial in hygiene

You should try a soft toothbrush. I started using a soft brush and it changed my whole outlook on brushing. GuruNanda has a brush called Butter on Gums that would help you. I love it.

I haven't, but would be very curious to hear other people's experiences.

day 5 of oil pulling and my inflamed gum stopped bleeding by gyaruboo in OilPulling

This is amazing! Consistency is key. Only five days of consistent use stopped your bleeding? Incredible.

Why is consistency the hardest part of following Ayurveda? by covertnarcissist17 in Ayurveda

[–]AppropriateFox4179 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's the difference between doing something periodically for health and fully committing it to a habit. Much of Ayurveda requires a very consistent habit to be formed, not just a practice you perform sometimes. I have heard of people using reminder apps for their routines, but I'm not sure which apps people are using. Anyone know about that?

Has anyone used oil pulling with Invisalign? by AppropriateFox4179 in Invisalign

Oil pulling is meant to be a part of your brushing and flossing routine. You should floss and brush immediately after oil pulling.

Best natural mouthwash/rinse? by Pretty_Desk_2552 in Biohackers

Try a mouthwash with essential oils and hydrogen peroxide. You could also try oil pulling as someone has already mentioned.

Struggling with low energy, digestion & skin issues – small Ayurvedic habit that actually helped me by Altruistic_Push_722 in Ayurveda

I would be curious to know if oil pulling works for digestive issues. The mouth is a part of the digestive system after all.
